Optimization and detailed stability study on Pb doped ceria nanocubes for enhanced photodegradation of several anionic and cationic organic pollutants

A series of Pb doped CeO2 nanocubes with seven different Pb loadings (2–12 mol%) were synthesized via modified hydrothermal technique. The prepared samples were characterized by XRD, XPS, FT-IR, TGA, SEM, HR-TEM, EDS and UV–Vis DRS analysis. According to XRD analysis, the crystalline structure of sy...
